Hershey Half Marathon

Hershey Half Marathon
Hershey, PA

Race started at 7:30.  I was up at 6:30, and had mom drop me off by the stadium at 7:05 or so (it was nice that we stayed less than a mile away from the start).


Of course before I went, Nathan and Chris woke up to see me off.  As you can see from Nathan, he is really excited for me (watching cartoons).  Chris was also just as excited (really ticked cause I woke him up.)


 So the race starts right behind the stadium at Hershey (where I have seen many a DMB concert).  It was chilly, but I knew it would only be that way why we waited around.  Once the race started, it was perfect.

The first 3 miles or so takes runners around the complex (out past the convention center) and the back through the park.  The park was not open, except for us runners running through.  We ran in the park for a mile. 

We just about always had the tower in sight at one point or another.

I don't know how many people signed up for the race, but there were 3,926 finishers (so I am guessing they capped it at 4,000 people).
